Arvind Kejriwal Leaves Delhi High Court After Seeking Judge’s Recusal in CBI Case

Kejriwal Moves Court Seeking Judge’s Recusal

Former Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal was seen leaving the Delhi High Court after arguing an application seeking the recusal of a judge in an ongoing case.

Kejriwal requested that Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma step aside from hearing a petition filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

Case Linked to CBI Petition

The matter relates to a CBI petition challenging a trial court’s earlier decision. During the proceedings, Kejriwal’s legal team argued for the recusal of the judge, citing grounds that have not yet been publicly detailed.

Legal Proceedings Continue

The High Court is expected to consider the recusal application before proceeding further with the case.

Legal experts note that such requests are not uncommon in high-profile cases, especially when concerns about impartiality are raised.

Political and Legal Spotlight

The development places the case under significant political and legal scrutiny, given Kejriwal’s position as a key opposition leader.

Further hearings are likely to determine the course of the matter in the coming days.
